Ingredients for Brewing Coffee: A Complete List

Material preparation

The materials needed to make coffee are: coffee beans, grinder, filter paper, filter, kettle and coffee cups.

Choosing the right coffee beans

Choose a type of coffee bean you like. You can choose beans of different origins and roasting degrees according to your personal taste. Freshness is also important. Try to buy fresh coffee beans that have not been stored for a long time.

Grind the coffee beans into powder using a grinder

Place the selected coffee beans into the grinder and press the switch to start grinding. Adjust the grinding degree according to personal taste, usually continue to process until the coarse and medium particle size is maintained.

Purify the kettle and add appropriate amount of clean water

Make sure you use a clean, odor-free kettle and fill it with enough water. Generally, you need about 180 ml (6 oz) of water per cup.

Prepare filter paper and filters

Place filter paper in the filter, making sure it completely covers the bottom of the filter. This will effectively prevent coffee grounds from entering the coffee cup.

Pour the ground coffee into the filter

Pour the appropriate amount of ground coffee powder evenly into the prepared filter. Determine the amount to add according to personal taste and the number of cups required.

Brewing coffee

Before you start brewing, heat the kettle to the right temperature (usually 90°C-96°C). Then, slowly and evenly pour the boiling water into the filter, making sure it fully wets all the coffee grounds and allowing the water to flow slowly through.

Wait for brewing to finish

Once all the water has passed through the filter and fallen into the coffee cup, you can wait for the entire brewing process to be completed. This time depends on how you want the strength and taste to be adjusted.

Enjoy delicious coffee

When you feel the time has been long enough, you can gently pick up the cup of hot coffee and slowly savor its aromatic flavor.

Cleaning and maintenance

After brewing, clean the tools used in time. Pour out the filter paper and coffee grounds, and rinse the filter, kettle and coffee cup with clean water.

Conclusion

The above are the complete steps for preparing the ingredients for brewing coffee. By choosing the right beans, grinding them carefully, and brewing them correctly, you can enjoy a cup of coffee that is rich and delicious.
